*Do you think the pace of innovation at Apple has changed since the passing of Steve Jobs?*

Steve Jobs' lived in 21st century for just 11 years but influenced the most, Everyone has a smartphone now and Pixar is the most successful animation studio in the world.

"When he died, Apple was the most valuable company and Pixar was the most successful animation studio in the world"

He reached the top and died there .

He was neither a scientist nor an engineer but a great visionary. He is irreplaceable and will be forever.

A lot of Steve's difficult personality was because he was not understood and was unable to communicate his pains. It does not take away from the fact that people found him lashing out, it was because of his expectations of others being similar to his expectations of himself.

Gave me goosebumps when seeing him present the iPhone. Not because of the iPhone but because of the affirmation of the audience. When put into context, it is probably not about technology but about an intelligent spiritual person sense of belonging.

They say you die twice. Once when they bury you, and once when the last person speaks your name. Steve Jobs will never be truly dead.

I did not know a lot of the specifics of his life. This brings him down from being an icon, to a person, like someone we have all known. Very well made and clear portrait of this person of extraordinary abilities and weaknesses. RIP, Steve Jobs.

I'm an Android man but I have to tip my hat to Steve's creativity and vision, seeing what others couldn't. Cheers Steve, RIP.

You have an amazing channel! Can’t wait till it blow up!

His deranged ego made him believe that he could control the tumor in his pancreas. It was his total lack of humility that killed him. SUPER important lesson for all of us.

Money is not everything when it comes to wealth. The amount of free time you have. The health you have. The social life you have. A combination of all these makes you wealthy. Please remember that .

The fact that young Steve Jobs looks uncannily like Aston Kutcher is just astounding

[FeeLeap]

“For the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: ‘If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?’ And whenever the answer has been ‘No’ for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.” - Steve Jobs

From his famous statement/words and beliefs, now you know why he died young.

Of all the documentaries I've seen about Steve Jobs, this is by far the best and most touching I have seen. it has a certain warmth, glow and personal touch to it as though it was told by a close family member. I like!!!. Keep up the good work.

[YogeshanNaidoo]

Really enjoying the excellent short biographies you've been doing

[djscratchdog]

He was a amazing person Jobs was the reason I worked for Apple for 12 years..I still have the crystal glass Apple Award and signed certificate to show I worked for Apple for a decade. I was lucky to meet Steve Jobs on my first week of training in cafe Mac..
